Details
Description
The Royal Oak reference 15000TR is notable for its rare use of tantalum, highlighting Audemars Piguet's early exploration of unconventional materials. Tantalum is a rare, hard metal known for its appealing dark hue and exceptional resistance to corrosion. Its use in watchmaking is uncommon due to the high temperatures required to make it malleable. This innovative approach, seen later with ceramic and frosted gold, is exemplified in this model’s striking combination of tantalum and rose gold. Includes presentation non-Audemars Piguet box.
